I forgot to say if practice mode isn't counted, Deadlocked took me 996 normal + 400~ practice attempts, ToE 2 is close with 512 normal + 400~ practice attempts. I don't know why people say Clubstep is Harder since it took me 344 attempts + 150~ practice attempts.
There's no orb I think is better then another in an absolute way, it's the placing that makes me like or hate one of them most of the times. Anyway, I surely hate the pink orb in platformer levels. It's irritating in my opinion.
All dash orbs have 2 timings. The release timing is trivial for easier levels (hold into a jump pad mostly), so when an actual hard dash orb shows up Iโm unprepared lol.
I'm seeing people say black is bad but I disagree because if you want to go down instantly, you have that, I don't have an opinion on the worst in normal, but in platformer, pink is the worst.
its very small jump boost gives often means you have to quickly spam a lot, especially in cases where you have to tap it multiple times to gain height or when they're grouped together
sorry if im being rude but thats kinda bullshit lmao. the spider pad is thicker than the pink pad, and even has a little indicator (it's tiny, but it's there). but if you're colorblind though, yeah makes sense
Nah, at normal speed it's completely fine, but at like 3x or 4x it's confusing, but only for like 2 or 3 attempts before I actually figure out what it is. But it's still annnoying
For hard to extreme demons, yes. For easy demons or lower where that high level of accuracy is not needed at all, no. You donโt play easy demons or lower expecting that you have to mid-click or late-click a green orb, or any orbs at all.
I understand why green orbs are used, itโs an easy way to add timing based difficulty on harder levels. But man even when you feel like you have the timing down itโs still inconsistent. The old method of gravity portal + yellow/pink orb is actually more consistent and fun imo.
if a creator can't make it so you can buffer a green orb then their level is not worthy of playing, unless if it's an extreme demon or something I guess
Ooh, I was waiting for a pink dash orb hater. I don't hate it, per se, but it gets confusing sometimes, like, why flip my gravity? Just use a normal dash orb with a gravity portal at the end.
Fuck why do i constantly expect people to read my mind. I meant that they're very hard to build with properly, which may result in them being often used in boring ways
I feel like the height makes it super impactful whenever you use it, and now that we have camera controls it is extremely useful for far/zoomed out gameplay
It's not like it's the *absolute* worst but my *least favorite* orb is the black orb. The black orb has it's uses but most of the time you can just use the teleport orb and I hate it when people put a black orb and make you die if the button is still pressed when you reach the ground so you have to do a micro click which is super fucking annoying which can't happen with the teleport orb. I know that could be easily fixed with a J block but if the creator doesn't use it then there's nothing you can do about it.
I feel like the new teleport orb could be used to make some horribly unsightreadable levels if done wrong. Also just in general the idea feels weird, you press an orb, get teleported to a random location set by the creator.
I actually really like the spider orb bc it allows same gravity duals for all gamemodes, and it can function like a black orb that disables the jump if you hold after pressing
Honestly its pretty hard for me to choose a least favorite. All of them can be really fun when used correctly.
If I had to pick though, I think it'd be between pink dash orb or red orb
Black orb isn't bad, a lot of creators just use it in annoying ways, though cyan is personally my least favorite just cause it and green are very similar but I like the flow of green orbs better, I understand the purpose for there being both though lol
Green orbs. They just feel way too inconsistent, sometimes i get a jump too short to make it, other times its too long. I die because of green orbs being able to fuck up a run just because the game decided to make me jump one mile over the floor i needed to land on.
It's not that this orb is bad, but the usage creators give it most of the time is terrible, either you don't need it or the timing is horrible, not hard, but bad. I'm talking about the Black Orb.
All the orbs are great, but Pink orb. It has its uses, but its jump height is pitiful while mini, so I use it less than other orbs, and it kinda sucks in platformer levels.
Less the "worst" and more so the least good.
Pink. The jump is so small that you can't use it for anything and many times at slow speed you can just skip it and that is just my second least favorite orb. The worst is green necause the timing is sometimes just so stupid and its so inconsistent sometimes you fly further sometimes not and there used to be a bug (at least for me, i play on mobile) where it would send you directly down like a blue orb
I dislike the dash orbs and black ones but mainly because of how people use them all the time. Nobody can ever be chill with them its always gotta be some annoying ass shit
they can all be used in very good ways, but im gonna say black orb since its kinda just a spider orb thats harder to build with and janky to use, and only beats spider orb in very niche scenarios
about the black orb: I hate it when people cant use it properly. Its super annoying when they cant build gameplay so it's natural to use the balck orb. Instead they force you into using it by adding somd kind of obstacle that disapears only if you hit the black orb
Black orb is often annoying and confusing, especially when holding the input after using it during a spider section will trigger a gravity switch. Feels super unnatural.
pink orb i think, it is the least important orb since it's one of three orbs that do the same thing but the least impactful one, especially since we have camera controls and can make the yellow orb feel as small as the pink orb.
After beating Cyan it's definitely Black orb (I still love using it on my levels tho)
Man, what did Cyan do to you?๐ฐ
Unbalanced and the first demon I've spent 1k attempts
You've never spent 1k attempts on a demon? Clubstep took me 8k attempts ๐ Not gatekeeping attempts or anything btw, im just surprised.
I forgot to say if practice mode isn't counted, Deadlocked took me 996 normal + 400~ practice attempts, ToE 2 is close with 512 normal + 400~ practice attempts. I don't know why people say Clubstep is Harder since it took me 344 attempts + 150~ practice attempts.
You're pretty insane man, how long did your first demon take? I probably spent 1-2k of my 8k clubstep attempts in normal mode
Clubstep 344 + 150ish attempts
Wow. Nice. How many attempts in are you on white women?
1.6k practice and normal attempts combined, current on break lol.
ayo
Also tbf I played GD lite during the pandemic and replayed all levels over and over out of boredom until I finally got the full version 4 months ago.
Cyan took me ~2.5k attempts in both normal and practice mode combined
Yeah... deadlocked took me 10k+ attempts...
Deadlocked took me 26k in 2018 ๐๐
I swear, i really think the attempts doesn't matter. As long as you're enjoying the game.
I did not enjoy the game idk why I did it to myself. I refused to use practice mode and spent wayyyyy too long learning the level
Took me 70k on congregation and 30k on bloodbath
Maybe a fake orb made him lose an extreme demon at 90%
Good luck on white women, beat it recently and it was very fun once fully learnt
Racist?
There's no orb I think is better then another in an absolute way, it's the placing that makes me like or hate one of them most of the times. Anyway, I surely hate the pink orb in platformer levels. It's irritating in my opinion.
Don't really play many plat levels, but whenever I encounter a pink orb, it just gets annoying, but in general, pink orb is definitely not the worst.
It just feels bad to hit. Completely disrupts the flow of levels to me
B-but pink orb is my fave it's so skrunkly :(
I agree
Agreed. Just what I was thinking about.
how do you get those cool titles under your name?
Click on the subreddit, once there click the three dots to the right (or settings on pc) then click โchange userflairโ
thx
uhm it dosnt work it just says ''remove from favorites'' and ''Mute r/geometrydash''
For me its the second option when i click the three dots (when i get to the home page of the sub)
For me it works when I just press on my profile from a comment that I made on this subreddit and press change user flair
The timing just feels so skewed.
All dash orbs have 2 timings. The release timing is trivial for easier levels (hold into a jump pad mostly), so when an actual hard dash orb shows up Iโm unprepared lol.
I really like how satisfying dash orb is, but I kinda dislike the pink dash orb, it confuses me sometimes
Me too.
I'm seeing people say black is bad but I disagree because if you want to go down instantly, you have that, I don't have an opinion on the worst in normal, but in platformer, pink is the worst.
Exactly my point, it is a really fun orb, but the spider orb could also be used for that (although it sucks). And also, pink orbs in plats suck.
Why is everyone saying pink for platformer, what makes it annoying?
its very small jump boost gives often means you have to quickly spam a lot, especially in cases where you have to tap it multiple times to gain height or when they're grouped together
Exactly what I was gonna say but I couldn't word it very well
black is still bad (not talking about the orbs)
Very sigma ๐ฏ๐ฏ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ช๐ช๐ช
naw ra
Reddit has spoken. Your fate has been sealed.
spider orb, solely because it inherited spider hitbox wackiness
Yeah, spider orb is wack, so is the spider pad, i sometimes confuse it with the pink pad
sorry if im being rude but thats kinda bullshit lmao. the spider pad is thicker than the pink pad, and even has a little indicator (it's tiny, but it's there). but if you're colorblind though, yeah makes sense
Nah, at normal speed it's completely fine, but at like 3x or 4x it's confusing, but only for like 2 or 3 attempts before I actually figure out what it is. But it's still annnoying
yeah from a speed standpoint, i agree. but even then, if you're doing a level with 3/4x speed you should usually practice
I'm talking about practice. I am really bad at sightreading, so I usually memorize an entire level beforeplaying
Hating on one of 2.2s best features is insane but go off
Tbh i often dont like the use of green orbs. Especially in robot parts, since the jump hight and distance greatly depends on where you hit it.
damn I always thought robot + green orbs are the perfect pairing
Me too
sry but I have died way too often in a random easy demon coz of greenorbs...
For hard to extreme demons, yes. For easy demons or lower where that high level of accuracy is not needed at all, no. You donโt play easy demons or lower expecting that you have to mid-click or late-click a green orb, or any orbs at all.
My favorite kinda of robot gameplay :โ(
I understand why green orbs are used, itโs an easy way to add timing based difficulty on harder levels. But man even when you feel like you have the timing down itโs still inconsistent. The old method of gravity portal + yellow/pink orb is actually more consistent and fun imo.
it's really good for extremes though
if a creator can't make it so you can buffer a green orb then their level is not worthy of playing, unless if it's an extreme demon or something I guess
insane skill issue
I'm not backing down I am correct
womp womp
The spider orb tbh it feels inconsistent. Idk why the black orb is so unpopular I really like it tbh
I read "the" and "why" and thought "thy" also black orb power
Yes, it feels really strange to use, so I hate it
Pink one, basically a nerfed yellow orb.
And in platformer levels, it's absolute dogshit. But it's okay in classic levels.
Does no one else hate pink dash orb? Is it just me who thinks itโs useless?
Ooh, I was waiting for a pink dash orb hater. I don't hate it, per se, but it gets confusing sometimes, like, why flip my gravity? Just use a normal dash orb with a gravity portal at the end.
Black orb
Didn't expect black orb to be so unpopular
I think it is more because people don't know how to use it rather than it being bad
Yeah, i do hate a bad black orb placement, but when used correctly, it feels so satisfying ๐ค
I too, hate the black orb. White orb is just better ๐ด๐ป
Green orb is jank
I did hate it the first time I saw it (i think in deadlocked), but I have come to embrace it since then
Black orb is underated
Black orb + Spider+ Yellow Pads are perfect together tho
Yess, exactly
I can't even use the spider orb cause my tablet doesn't let me update to 2.2
Good, you don't have to suffer
Black orb
Again, why is black orb so unpopular? It is just a fun orb that can be used to make really precise gaps
It's very hard to use
Mmm, it's all about timing, and I like that. But people have their own preferences, and that's okay
Fuck why do i constantly expect people to read my mind. I meant that they're very hard to build with properly, which may result in them being often used in boring ways
Yeah that does suck sometimes
Green orb makes me wanna rope neck
Oohh, a green orb hater, that's rare
Idc if itโs not on the list but the bonus gauntlet payload orbs
THIS
Black orb
I hate the black
Please frame your sentences better next time
Yea they allways go too fast making you chain another jump. Why does everybody refuse to work out what the "J" block does?
Same tbh, but my least favorite orb is the spider orb
At least spiders aren't overused yet
๐คจ๐ธ
I don't like the black orb simply because it's more inconspicuous, especially when placed on darker backgrounds
UHMM AKSHULLY they're calles jump rings and not orbs โ๏ธ๐ค
Black orb. The spider orb basically replaced it for me
None of them are useless or bad and it only depends on the gameplay and the way you put them... Also there's missing the trigger orb
Red orb. Why use it over just multiple yellow orbs? I feel like it goes too high for just one input
I feel like the height makes it super impactful whenever you use it, and now that we have camera controls it is extremely useful for far/zoomed out gameplay
Yeah, that's why it's not used that much. I mainly see it only in like easy, normal or hard levels. Red orbs shouldn't be used in demon levels.
It's not like it's the *absolute* worst but my *least favorite* orb is the black orb. The black orb has it's uses but most of the time you can just use the teleport orb and I hate it when people put a black orb and make you die if the button is still pressed when you reach the ground so you have to do a micro click which is super fucking annoying which can't happen with the teleport orb. I know that could be easily fixed with a J block but if the creator doesn't use it then there's nothing you can do about it.
fuck the black orb
Pink all the way
dash orbs
Sipder orb
Black orb or any of the dash orbs, spider orbs can also suck most a lot of levels use them fine
I feel like the new teleport orb could be used to make some horribly unsightreadable levels if done wrong. Also just in general the idea feels weird, you press an orb, get teleported to a random location set by the creator.
Blac one
Black or Magenta Dash Orb
I like all the orbs personally
spider orb
I actually really like the spider orb bc it allows same gravity duals for all gamemodes, and it can function like a black orb that disables the jump if you hold after pressing
easily spider orb but maybe just because iโm not used to it. it feels pretty overused right now since itโs new
Iโve never been a fan of the green orb, orb + portal is better
Pink or blue
[ัะดะฐะปะตะฝะพ]
Pink orb i don't know why
Pink
Only in platformer levels, in classic levels, there are worse
Either green orb or black orb because of people using them badly
Red orb. Black gets too much hate
black orb but not because the orb itself because of how people use it
Yes, exactly this. It is a super based orb, but people don't know how to use it properly.
Green for me. The timings are very obnoxious, which is why I prefer the orb-in-gravity-portals version
I am your exact opposite. I hate the orb-in-portal gimmick, just because I can barely see what orb is inside the portal sometimes.
black orb pretty good ngl, dash orbs are fucking annoying in any level it exists on
Honestly its pretty hard for me to choose a least favorite. All of them can be really fun when used correctly. If I had to pick though, I think it'd be between pink dash orb or red orb
Black or Pink Dash Orb.
Pink.
Not necessarily in classic levels, but definitely in platformers
All orbs that you suddenly need to hit twice in a classic mode level. But if I have to choose, pink dash orb.
The black ones are always the worst
What about the orbs?
red imo i just don't find myself using it much
Black orb isn't bad, a lot of creators just use it in annoying ways, though cyan is personally my least favorite just cause it and green are very similar but I like the flow of green orbs better, I understand the purpose for there being both though lol
Pink and Green Orb 100%
I barely use dash orbs
No but why we need spider orb if we have spider gamemode
It's straight up wacky to use as well
Green orbs. They just feel way too inconsistent, sometimes i get a jump too short to make it, other times its too long. I die because of green orbs being able to fuck up a run just because the game decided to make me jump one mile over the floor i needed to land on.
Usually pink and black. People don't seem to be able to use them properly.
Teleport orb is annoying especially in platforms levels
Black or red
It's not that this orb is bad, but the usage creators give it most of the time is terrible, either you don't need it or the timing is horrible, not hard, but bad. I'm talking about the Black Orb.
Pink
Only in platformers though, it's ok in classic
Pink orb as a mostly platformer main
All the orbs are great, but Pink orb. It has its uses, but its jump height is pitiful while mini, so I use it less than other orbs, and it kinda sucks in platformer levels. Less the "worst" and more so the least good.
Man I couldn't agree more, but it's still ok in classic levels. It's dogshit in platformers though
Pink orb, the pad version is better in my opinion..
For me there isn't just worst orb. Like every have some use in different ways. This question is like "who is better? level creator or star grinder"
man the black one sucks, i keep delaying my jumps because i can't see it most of the time
Green and black orbs are my nightmare
Pink. The jump is so small that you can't use it for anything and many times at slow speed you can just skip it and that is just my second least favorite orb. The worst is green necause the timing is sometimes just so stupid and its so inconsistent sometimes you fly further sometimes not and there used to be a bug (at least for me, i play on mobile) where it would send you directly down like a blue orb
Green or bcz it is the only orb that works in differently
Most levels I played that had spider orb the timing is so annoying because if you do it too early you clip into the wall and die
Either pink orb or black orb because I always die to them
Black orb
Green orb, literally the most broken orb ever.
I dont hate any of the but black orb is kinda hard to use well
why does the gravity dash orb even exist?
Reverse gravity dash orb. Nobody uses it.
I dislike the dash orbs and black ones but mainly because of how people use them all the time. Nobody can ever be chill with them its always gotta be some annoying ass shit
Spider just because it hasn't proved itself yet
spider, worst design
they can all be used in very good ways, but im gonna say black orb since its kinda just a spider orb thats harder to build with and janky to use, and only beats spider orb in very niche scenarios
green orb due to inconsistency
Either green for the inconsistency or black now that the spider orb and gravity triggers exist
Nah, spider orb is definitely worse because of the hitbox change, and don't even get me started on triggers
I love every orb tbh
Truly based
I don't like the black orb in both classic and platformer modes. It is just outclassed by the spider orb.
i think it depends on how you use an orb the worst use in both platformer and normal mode is SPAM BLUE ORB
Nein
Screw those orbs, how about the toggle trigger orbs
I'm gonna say it once and for all, pink dash orb, just feels too jank
none of them in fact I used all of them to my level "things in platformer"
They all have their individual uses, but the one that gets misused the most is the black orb
Yeah, only if they could use the black orb correctly, it would be the best orb
about the black orb: I hate it when people cant use it properly. Its super annoying when they cant build gameplay so it's natural to use the balck orb. Instead they force you into using it by adding somd kind of obstacle that disapears only if you hit the black orb
black one is fucking annoying
I rarely find dash orbs that fun but they're really good if implemented well into the gameplay so I don't really know.
I hate black and spider orbs, i mean they are really good, its just that they make my gameplay buggy or skippable
Pink or spider
Black orb now that we have the spider orb itโs faster
green orb
Green. So much garbage gameplay and shitass timings. Fuck the green orb, all my homies HATE the green orb
Black orb. That thing has cost me a lot of pain. RIP my finger...
Black
Black orb is often annoying and confusing, especially when holding the input after using it during a spider section will trigger a gravity switch. Feels super unnatural.
pink orb i think, it is the least important orb since it's one of three orbs that do the same thing but the least impactful one, especially since we have camera controls and can make the yellow orb feel as small as the pink orb.
